Book Review: Jonathan's Journey

Reviewed by: spring94

In this book, Katherine Bell opens up a world of reality and hope.
Awesome Presentation of the Gospel! Although fiction, this is by far the best presention of the Gospel I have ever read in a fictional novel. You will not want to put this book down. It is a book that you will highly recommend to all your friends. What an inspiration, it's a very simply explained synopsis of the entire Bible and the Gospel!

The author based it on a profoundly handicapped boy she knows. In the book, he is visited one night by Jesus who takes him through the story of redemption. The last few chapters are real tear-jerkers, but in a good way: heart-warming …refreshing, penetrating picture of Jesus through the eyes of a … child. The author's view of Jesus simplifies difficult theology.

This book is a rare fictional treasure for children and adults. It is one of the best tools I've seen to lead a child to a sound understanding and acceptance of Jesus Christ. What a delightful way to help your children understand Scripture as one continuous story of God's incredible love. …
I would highly recommend this book for children and adult's who have been wounded by abuse, disabilities or anyone looking for a wonderful panoramic picture of God's love for us.
